Yeti 1500x Idle Battery Drain?
Just got my 1500x a week or so ago. The day I got it, I charged it up and with it idle with the only power being used for Wi-Fi cloud connect I was getting a drain of 15Wh per day. I called customer support and they said that was to fast. They had me do a hard and soft reset and told me to charge up and give it a couple…

YETI 200X strange behavior with wall charger 8mm
Dears, when trying to charge my YETI 200X using the wall charger (8mm, rear input) a low buzzer tune keeps beeping rhythmically (every second) and the Battery gets discharged as if I would run a 60Watt device with it. I have not tested the solar behavior yet. I bought the YETI approx. 2 years ago and had not problems with…

When pluggin in my Nomad 50 into my new Sherpa 100 AC (8mm plug) then the upper USB-C port turns blue and doesn't load - even if I switch it to «output». As soon as I un-plug the 8mm cable, the USB-C port charges again. Can I reset the ports or is this an error?

How to view Tank Pro 4000's Net Power, Net Current and C Rating?
Good afternoon. I just installed my brand-new Yeti Pro 4000 and Tank Pro 4000 units. BMS equalization completed, and on the Pro 4000's OSD, tank's status is displayed as 'Combined'. Charge and discharge are happening on both the Yeti and Tank batteries at the same time and the SoC is almost the same on both (off by 1%).…

Maintaining LiFePo4 Battery
Will be taking delivery of a new Yeti 700 in a couple days. Since it has the new LiFePo4 batteries, is there a specific way to maintain these batteries? Can I leave the 700 permanently plugged in or should I charge to 100% then discharge to a specific percentage?

Sherpa 100AC (4th Gen) USB-C port problems
The device has mostly been good for months, but today I ran into a strange issue. The bottom USB-C port would only charge at 18-20W, and the top port wasn't working at all. I reset the power bank by holding the USB button, as well as USB + AC. Now the top port will charge at the full 60W, but the bottom port isn't working…

Yeti 1000X or 700?
I have an older Yeti 400 AGM which has served me well for years, replaced the battery and to this day, it's still going strong. I would like to upgrade and have narrowed my choices down to either the Yeti 1000X or the new Yeti 700. Now I understand the differences between the two, different battery chemistries, different…

Is there an adaptor to connect a Yeti 6000 to an existing transfer switch?
My house has a standard 6-circuit transfer switch already wired into our breaker box. I usually plug in my Honda 3000 generator when we lose power, which happens several times a year for 2 - 5 days. I believe it connects to the generator with a 20-amp, standard 4-pin plug. See picture. Is there an adapter that I can use to…

Light a Life 350 Not Working

Is it possible to charge a Yeti 3000 from a bike generator (an alternator powered by a bike)?
OK, first off, I COMPLETELY understand that charging a Yeti power station from a bike will take FOREVER and that it's really inefficient and all of that. This is not about the speed and efficiency of charging my power station. This is about motivating me to ride the bike trainer more. If I knew that the energy that I was…

How to Wire a Cargo Trailer Conversion to Integrate with Yeti 1500x/PRO 4000
I have a cargo trailer that I am converting into a toy hauler and am thinking of going with the Yeti 1500x (for now and may upgrade to the PRO 4000 later) as the power solution as it is seemingly more versatile than separate batteries/inverter/etc as I can pull the until and use as home backup generator. My questions: How…

Nomad 20 low power outputs
Hello I have had the Nomad 20 for almost 2 years and it hardly produces any power anymore. I plug it in to charge my yeti 200x via the 8mm port or to charge the Sherpa 100ac via 8mm port. In direct sunlight, the panel barely gives 4 W. I also measured the USB output power and it comes out to just 1 amp. I also have a…

Can the Tank Pro 4000 sit side by side with the Yeti Pro 4000?
All of the illustrations show the Yeti Pro 4000 being stacked on top of the Tank Pro 4000. Is the cord long enough to reach if they are instead put side by side? I ask because in the space I intend to put them (in a van) I have more horizontal than vertical space available, and would prefer to orient them that way.…

Fan noise 500?
I've had two 1500's plugged in for for well over a year and I've never heard a peep from them. Just got a 500 and I hear what has to be a fan kick on fairly regularly. They are all stored in a cool basement area, so there's no difference in temperature or heat to speak of. No lights on the panel indicating something wrong…

Why doesn't the Nomad 100 have a kickstand?
In looking for a good 100W foldable solar panel, I looked at the Nomad 100, but was disappointed to learn that it doesn't have a kickstand. Every other 100W foldable panel does, so why doesn't Goal Zero? Even though I'm heavily invested in GZ, this was a deal breaker for me. I'll now be looking for a model from a…
